Grimsby chairman Fenty challenges Arsenal hero Campbell: Why haven't you called?

Grimsby Town are willing to interview Sol Campbell for the manager's job.

Arsenal legend Campbell made headlines this week when he said he could not understand why he - "one of the greatest minds in football" - was getting overlooked for jobs.

But Grimsby chairman John Fenty said: "I'm surprised we haven't heard from Sol. He said that clubs aren't taking a punt on young managers.

"We'd have a chat with him."

When asked if Grimsby being 18th in League Two would put him off, he said: "No. I'm from a hard-working background. It's all about getting in there, that's the kind of guy I am."
